Omni-Path

Uh, I first came across the company at an industry comp-- uh, conference, uh, well before, like, this big AI networking boom started to take off.

Now, interesting thing about Cornelis, it has its roots in, uh, Intel's former Omni-Path business, uh, a networking architecture originally developed for high-performance compute and supercomputing.

Now, that heritage has become increasingly relevant as, uh, large AI clusters face many of the same challenges around moving data quickly, keeping thousands of processors synchronized.

Now, Cornelis is taking those foundations and extend it to more-- uh, extend it more aggressively into AI across, uh, scale-out and increasingly scale-up networking.

Our innovation, our architecture, our base platform, and all, uh, that we built has come from decades of experience and domain expertise in the team.

In fact, one of our founders helped write the InfiniBand spec, and we have just a tremendous amount of, uh, expertise inside the company.

And how we got the, that base foundational Omni-Path architecture was, uh, a couple teams and companies were actually acquired into Intel, uh, many years ago.

They were given an opportunity of a lifetime to have a kind of blank sheet of paper and innovate for what are the networking requirements of the most highly parallel workload systems.
